Description:
On a sloppy day at camel, at 5:30 p.m., I talked myself into paddling out to join about 30 people to rebound from my lost gun blues. There were waves to ride, but not great by any stretch of imagination. The sun set beautifully at around 7:20 and the crowd quickly vanished leaving only three of us to make sure no good waves got passed us. The wind completely stopped and the formerly dead-low tide close-out started jacking up and ripping off the bar! We decided to stay out though the horizon was fading to darkness. The guy rode a wave all the way in, leaving a gal and I in the moonlight riding many waves. When I slipped out the back of a long ride, I made the decision to paddle right back out, for the waves were better than I had seen them all day. Upon arrival back into the line-up, I noticed that she was still there. We repeated this process time after time until I said to her, "If you are going all the way in, let me know, but as long as you are out here, I'm staying." Riding a meaty wave in the dark all alone is what I had to do to when she rode in!

We planned on going up to Boca for a usual session, but Boca was flat as glass. So me and my riding partner decided to jump on I-95 for the trip north. We got up to Fort Pierce and discovered it was well worth the 2 hour drive. The tide was just going down and the waves were picking up. Great waves, great hotties, great people, and fun. Great session all in all. Long overdue, south florida surf has SUCKED lately.. Thank god for Saturday.

Just spent the entire day with my best mates surfing and goofing off in the lineup. The conditions were so small and we were just having a blast out in the water surfing and joking around. Maybe 20 people out but more than enough waves for all. Just an all around fun day, conditions were nice and glassy. Small but beautiful. Can't wait for spring break, non-stop Trestles!

Description:
It was one of those daysyou think it's good to be a surfer! I came early in the morning at the right spot at the right time. I found a fun left from 80cm to 1m, sometimes more. I was alone.
Even if the wave was not tubular, I got a lot of fun to surf it. I took 41 waves... I will have difficulty to do it better. As the wave was not very fast but has enough power to work my turns, I have done a lot of tricks.
A really good session !

Description:
The Kookaburra sits in the old Gum Tree ...
7AM Picked up my new custom shaped EPS/Epoxy Kingfisher 9' 0" X 23" X 3" X 18" X 15" Swallow tail Quad. Waxed up with wax softened by my Solara's heater, peeled on the 4/3 Cell and paddled out at Ray Bay. No too crowded yet and Tony was taking pix. Kind of soft and full with the early morning high tide but clean and glassy with some nice shoulder high sets every now and then.
Kookaburra (King of the Kingfishers)!
http://ausinternet.com/ettamogah/kookaburrasong.htm
First thing you notice with the EPS/Epoxy is even with 2X6 oz deck and 1X6 oz bottom is its lack of weight. Flotation is amazing, could almost knee paddle it. The board feels more lively yet more rigid than polyurethane foam, makes a tinkling sound as it slaps the water. How does it ride, excellent, no quirks. Paddles and catches waves like a board 6 inches longer. You can run it out in front of a peak lay it on a rail and snap it back off the top. Extremely stable, forgiving platform, even with slight double concaves under the fins. The extra width and the hard down rails by the wing and swallow grip and track through foam without even a bump or loss of speed. The concave nose allows you to push through fat sections from up front. Only thing did find it felt a little stiff, which I am sure can be fixed by playing with the fin set up (after all it has 5 slots) plus I have been riding my MR design 7'2" SuperFish the past couple of weeks.

The wind was stronger than expected but the surf was good. I started on the left in the rip. I got some really good shots. But after 1h, I felt tired and crossed the channel to the the beautiful right which started to work really well. I got some backside bombs (I nearly tube!)
Then the cold started to do its destruction: I had to come back home !

Description:
After a week of La Niña storms and pouring rain followed by gale force winds (thought the big California Palm trees would come crashing down all over) surf was "Victory at Sea" until the last couple of days.
With apology to Donovan:
Blue's the colour of the sky
In the mornin' when I ride,
In the mornin' when I ride.
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best.
Brown's the colour of the angry sea
In the mornin' when I ride,
In the mornin' when I ride.
That's the time, that's the time
I love the best.

Anyway Blackies at Newport Beach was the ticket the past couple of mornings. Yesterday was a solid chest to shoulder high with overhead sets even on the deep early morning high tide. Today was cleaner (not the water) but smaller and super crowded. With the shifting peak you just had to be lucky to be in the right spot. Late steep take-offs for a quick cover up then blasted out onto a fat shoulder that sucked up on the inside sandbar! (By the way I will let you know if I develop Super Powers due to the toxic runoff!)
Under the LIP! Now that's what I call VERTICAL!

Glassy conditions this morning Northside Seal Pier at 8 AM with light rain and a light cross shore. Swell was inconsistent chest to shoulder on the sets with some shore break backwash from a deep early morning high tide of almost 7 feet (some minor flooding on PCH by Sunset Beach). Only a couple of us out there "Singing in the Rain". A couple of heavy squalls from an offshore thunderstorm then patchy blue sky and a rainbow. Started to get better as the tide went out but the side shore SE wind started to pick up. Caught a 100 yard bomb off the sea wall, late takeoff, ducked under the lip and pumped the Super Fish hard down the line through the backwash to almost dry sand!

I caught one really good wave at the beginning of the session. I probably rode that thing for 150 to 200 yards or so. The waves were kind of bumpy and blown out though. I think if we had a little offshore breeze instead of the onshore one it would have been great.
Overall it was a good session though.

Description:
The waves were a decent size today. The wind was blowing offshore pretty hard though so it was rough out there today. There was a crowd out today but it was so spread out because of the type of break white plains is so it wasn't too bad.
Caught a couple of waves today, two really good ones that stand out. The thing that sucked today though was the paddle out. Getting through the impact zone today was a little rough. After i caught the first good one it was a rough ride getting back to the outside lineup. After I caught the second good one I just rode it into shore.

An american lad told me it gets massive some days when the storms come and that he'd been bitten by a baby shark, but who knows. They were all really frindly and we got trolley'd on the beach afterwards with the sun setting and jimi hendrix blasting. Happy days!

Description:
It was pretty bad today. The strong offshore wind kept pushing the whole lineup away from the break, the swell wasn't all it was cracked up to be today, and it was pretty crowded too.
All told, I got a few waves in and a bad day of surfing is better than a good day at work. I'll take it.

Description:
There was supposed to be a decent swell coming from the north west so I went to check out tracks and it was totally flat. I took the 20 minute drive a little further north to the rec center just to see what was up and, apparently, the swell started to come in during the drive. They were still a little small and there was a lot of waiting going on between sets but, no matter what the conditions, I have a hard time saying I had a bad day surfing.
The lineup was pretty sweet today too. There was me, a guy on a paddle board, and some dude named Jack, and then one other guy came out a little later and hung out for a while. A couple of paddleboarders came out a little later but they left pretty quick. All told it there was never more than five people out there at any time.

The waves were kind of junk today. The first hour was right before the super bowl. That was pretty sweet cuz the wind was light and the waves were pretty fun. The second hour was after the super bowl so the wind had picked up and the tide had come in a little. The waves were pretty choppy but they were rideable. It was better than nothing!

After having missing the good sandbank yesterday, I get early this morning to go there. And I found the big right not as good as yesterday but still a really good wave !
I missed the 3 first waves because I was alone and it was hard to find the right take-off. Then I started to caught good ones with big carves and a lip on my head.
After surfers came. It was fun but really physical. Then we saw 50m south a incredible slab: it was Teahupoo !!! just perfect !! But the rip was too strong to take the wave (and I didn't have the level in fact)

Description:
The swell was big. And all the sandbanks have moved because of the tempest Klaus which have devastated my region. I found a solid swel. As the tide was low, I paddled outside and get some fun rights, powerful, hollow, but not too hollow.
After one hour, as the tide rose up, I came to beach. But the nightmate began: The waves were only big, thick close-outs. I caught only one wave more.
I was smashed by big sets...Exhausted I went out. I saw a beautiful peak: I jumped into the water again. I get smashed harder than before and didn't managed to go outside.
I came back. Then I saw surfers 500m up to the north on the most incredible right I ever seen here in ten years ! A guy (a really good surfer) caught a big stand-up tube, stayed 5sec completely hidden by the tube then went out !
I was too tired to go again...
the outside bank
and the close-out

It was a small day at Tracks today but it was a place I've been wanting to surf for a while. The lineup was empty again, there were nine of us out there, but that's why I like surfing during the weekday instead of on weekends, most people are at work.
I was surprised at how short the rides were too. I didn't realize Tracks broke that close to shore. All in all, a bad day of surfing is better than no day of surfing.

Coolest thing about the morning was the seal coming out of the water just as I was going in. I've seen the thing sitting around sunning before but I've never seen him come out like that.
Other than that, the lineup was pretty bare and the surf was okay. Nothing spectacular, just another day at White Plains. Better than working though.

Description:
Went to surf at the "Tree" in Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica at 6:00 AM. The tide was going to low tide, which was at 10:00, so the waves were getting faster and more hollow as closeouts. I stayed out there until I got a descent ride to satisfy the hunger I have to ride nice line. Caught a good fast left did a maneuver and got in the barrel to get everything I could out of it. After that there wasn't much to get so headed out and was walking to leave when a aquaintance that I hung out with a couple times came up to me. It was another surfer named Magoo (for some reason) and he's mentioned being in the WQS in the past. "Dude, you were surfing with some crocs out there man. I was like this kid is crazy. You were right next to them too," he said excitenly. I didn't know what to think and I told him how I always keep an eye out because Costa Rica is a naturally wild place with a lot of free roaming wildlife. "If you look out at the school of fish you can see them poppin up every once in a while. You can see them moving too doing S turns. I thaught I saw something so I went back to my house and got my binauculars and those are crocs, clear as day. Look I'll show you," he continued to explain and point out the dangerous creatures. Sure enough there they were "Clear as day" as he said and I felt that much insecure as I always do surfing by Myself. The one day that I finally feel comfortable being bymyself I get shotdown to being insecure of the natural dangers this wonderfull destination offers.

The lineup was me and some guy on a stand-up. I struggled with the 7'6" so after paddling around for 20 minutes, trying for four or five waves and catching one of them, I decided to paddle back in and grab the 8'6". Once I got out there with that one things started looking up. Got to grab whatever I wanted because there was noone out there competing for waves. Rode a handful of rights and called it a morning. Not too shabby.
